Big Fat Liar Page #6
You're all probably wondering|why I'm blue and orange.
[ Everyone Laughs ]|Just go with me for a second.
You see, uh, Big Fat Liar.
B.F.L. " Bfl "|as it's come to be known,
is full of action, romance,|effects-- oh,you bet!
But what it lacks right now|is a message.
Trooper's girlfriend makes|this new potion which is|supposed to make him shrink.
[ In Earpiece ] But instead,|it causes him to change color.
[ Faking A Cough ] Why?.|Because now, the twist is...
he can't even lie|about his feelings anymore.
You see, his girlfriend, Penny,|she makes Trooper an antidote...
which, instead of curing him-- whoa--|causes him to change colors.
When he's bummed out|about stuff, he turns blue.
- When depressed, he turns blue.|- When he's mad, his hair turns red.
When he's angry, boom!
His curly locks turn the color|of a flaming brushfire!
But when he discovers the ultimate|truth that he's in love with Penny,
finds its wayacross his visage.
I didn't tell him to say that!
Wolf, what are you doing?.|You're not listening to me.
Just stick to the plan--|[ Yelps ]
I'm sorry. The emotions|in this movie are just so painful.
They are painful because--
'cause they hit home,|right here... in the old corazon.
Who among us hasn't told|a little white lie?|I have.
Anybody else?. You?.|[Man ]|Guilty.
You?. It's all right,|don't be ashamed, brother,|because I am right there with you.
You're all right, man.|Because our picture...
looks the audience|right in the eye...
and says enough is enough!
Lying has gotta stop.
The truth and the truth alone|shall set you free!
Friends, God bless all of you.
God bless America,
and God bless Big Fat Liar!
[ Cheering ]
Very impressive, Marty.
Now, does this mean that you|will approve the budget?.|You start shooting tomorrow.
That's great.|But if anything, and I mean|anything, goes wrong,
your movie, your deal|at the studio...
and your career|will be over, you hear me?.
Okay.
Hey-o!|[ Laughs ]
Shepherd, you are|a genius, buddy! Huh?.|[ Imitating Punches Landing ]
You ready to make that call?.|Time to let my fingers|do the walking.
- Here's my dad's phone number.|- All right. Ah, Daddy.
Ah. Hello,|this is MartyWolf.
I am standing here in mykitchen|withJason Shepherd.
I'm lookin' at him as we speak.
And you better bring backup.|[ Phone Disconnects ]
What are you doing?. I thought|you were on the phone with my dad.
Oh, I was on the phone, all right,|but it ain't with your old man.
You're a real piece ofwork, Shepherd.|Who are you?.
Rocco Malone, head of security|for Marty Wolf Pictures.
Thanks for all your help,|kid. Really.
Savin' my butt twice in one year.|Who would've "thunk"it?
Let's go, kid. Come on,|you too, Punky Brewster.
You can't do this.|We have a witness!
Hey, first lesson in Hollywood,|sweetheart. Always get it in writing!
What a day!
Here's the deal. The two of you|are gonna get on a plane,
go back home, forget this|ever happened-- clear?.
Good. Let's go get|you two guys packed up, huh?.
I can't believe|we're just gonna give up.
You're Jason Shepherd.|You can get out of anything.
Come on. You must have|a phase four up your sleeve.
Yeah. I guess I do.
[Phone Dialing]
- Hello?.|- Dad?. It's Jason.
- Hey.|- I haven't--
I haven't been totally honest|about what I've been up to|the last couple of days.
And, uh, I think it's time|I told you the truth.
The truth?.|[ Sighs ]
Hey, Rocco. Hey.
Hey.
Why don't you head home?.|I'll take the kids to the airport.
- You sure?.|- Yeah. I was gonna be up all night...
rewriting Wolf's script anyway,|so it's no problem.
All right then. I'm gettin' too old|for this baby-sittin' anyway.
You take it easy.
Good night.|Good night.
You know what the worst part|of this whole thing is?.
Wolf is just going to keep|getting away with it.
He treats all these people|like dirt, and no one has|the guts to stand up to him.
- Forget it, Kaylee.|- I can't forget it.
It just makes me sick that your|parents are never gonna know|that you wrote that story.
What are we supposed to do?.|My parents are gonna be here|in the morning!
We tried everything.|It would take an army|to get Wolf to admit the truth.
I think I know where|we could find our troops.
- What areyou doing here?.|- I've been pushed around|by Wolffor too long.
Tomorrow his whole career|is on the line.
So you guys up|for one last fight?.
Jas?.
It's payback time.
Mmm. You've got to look good|for the first day of shooting.
Do you copy that, Mr. Funny bones?.
"That's a big 1 0-4, Marty!'
[ Laughs ]|Mmm. Whoo!
I brought you all here|tonight for two reasons.
"A" you're all the best|in your given fields.
And "B" you all|despise this man... a lot.
Gang, let's roll up our sleeves|and get to work.
Let's begin.|Your assignments.
Red team, you guys stall him|until my parents get to the set.
Oh! That's it. Oh!|One more! Oh! That's it!
Blue team, I need your help|in the distract and delay tactics.
Gold team, you guys are responsible|for the mental warfare.
In order to get what we need,|we are talking...
complete physical and|psycho-emotional breakdown, people.
- Oh, oh, oh, oh.|- I want to see a broken man.
"Ooh, I just threw a baseball|through your window" broken.
Snap him like a twig.|Squeeze him like a bug.
I want you to turn him into mincemeat,|and I don't even know what mincemeat is!
I want him to scream|for his mommy: "Wah, wah!
Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!'|Do you hear me?.
Do you read me?.|'Cause I don't think--
I... think they read you.|Fair enough.
Guys, I just got one thing to say.
It's show time.|It's show time.
From the studio?.|Yes, sir.
Don't I know you?.|Yeah, you do.
I'm Frank Jackson. I was your driver|last year until you fired me.
Fabulous! Oh!
Boy, the acting career|must really be taking off.
Bravo, Brando. Let's get movin'.|I don't wanna be late.
[ Phone Rings ]|Yeah.|Monty, it's me.
Oh, hey, Marty. Did you get|some rest for the big day?.
Ah, are you kidding me?.|I spent half the night with a scrub|brush and a can of turpentine.
But bye-bye, Little Boy Blue,|I am back!
Hey, pedal to the metal,|Ricky Retardo!
Got a movie to shoot.
Uh, I'm sorry, sir. There seems to be|something... wrong with the car.
[ Phone Disconnects ]
[ Sighs ]
I'm gonna fix it.
Hot smoke.|Very hot smoke! Oh.
What the hell is happening?.|Stay right there.
- What?.|- No, Mr. Wolf. Don't come up here.
We have a situation.|The carbide lateral valve...
is connected to the defibrillator,|and it'sjust actin' up.
And the point is, this thing could blow|any second, so you might wanna back up.
Back up, back up.|Okay. What are you saying?.
The engine's fried.|I need a backup car.
Are you kidding me?.|My movie starts shooting in an hour!
Mr. Wolf, please.|I would very much appreciate it|if you didn'tyell at me. Okay?.
Uh-uh, uh-uh.|I wanna do right--
[ Stammering ]|Don't! Don't touch, dude!
